Hagar Ezzeldin
Visual Artist, Cairo



هاجر عزالدين 
 فنانة بصرية، القاهرة 








‘’Hagar Ezzeldin's practice is based on a critical examination of history, narrative and domesticity. The Cairo-based artist works with diverse materials and media, such as performance, painting, drawings, installations and film, and deals with the representation, images and experiences of women, which are woven within social structures. Her work deals with the politics of representation and the duality of public and private space in a very honest, poetic and at the same time critical way’’ 

(Haris Giannouras - Museum Abteiberg Mönchengladbach) [2022/2023]

Hagar Ezzeldin is an Egyptian artist based in Cairo. Her work encompasses painting, installation, printmaking, artist books, performance, and video.
